CATALOGUE OF THE ASTEROIDEA AND OPHIUROIDEA IN THE 



COLLECTION OF THE ACADEMY OF NATURAL SCIENCES 



OF PHILADELPHIA. 



BY J. E. IVES. 



The following catalogue will be found to contain a number of - 

 localities that are new for various species. 



Two new forms of Star-fishes and two new forms of Ophiurans 

 from the collection have recently been described in the Proceedings 

 of the Academy. 



A large proportion of the Pacific forms are contained in a collec- 

 tion given to the Academy by Mr. W. N. Lockington. Many 

 of his specimens unfortunately have no locality indicated. The 

 majority of them, however, were collected on the west coast of North 

 and Central America, but there are also forms from Alaska, Japan, 

 New Zealand and the Pacific Islands.
